  • how do you keep your finger nail on your index finger from snagging the strings on the up stroke?

  • Slow down the strokes you are playing and get close to examine exactly what your fingernail is doing.

    Keep the index finger nail short.

    Experiment with the way you file your nail and playing angles.

    Polish the underside of the nail.

  • I learn to play the Rumba thanks to you ^ ^ I do have a question about the Rumba tab you published. On the 9th measure you show to use your middle and index finger for the right hand and use open and a finger for the right. Now I wonder what the numbers 3 1 4 1 mean on the top bar? I'm sorry if this sounds like a basic question.

  • These are the left hand fingerings. 3 = ring finger, 1 = index and 4 = pinky. This is standard classical guitar notation practice to write the left hand fingerings either above the stave like I have, or besides the notes themselves in the stave.

    NOTE:

    Actually you can use 4 where I have written 3. It's just that when I play it on the video I used the ring finger (3) in a moment of madness instead of the pinky (4) .... which is probably better.... so that's what I wrote i the music.
